How do you think Knight felt when he saw critiques and notes in the margins from KK and Charmin Obet Hanoi? If Knight is smart and cares about his reputation he should never allow his name attached to guaranteed failure.
One thing people fail to acknowledge even if it is crystal clear, TFA is garbage and was garbage before TLJ was conceived of. TFA laid the foundation and set the mood for the Disney Star Wars we all know today. This new Rey film is DOA, no one but KK wants it.
100,000,000!!!^^This here^^ The presumptuous audacity and hubris of everyone involved thinking they could "improve" SW and the ground work laid by Lucas. The sheer, fcking hubris! It always has been, it always will be...Lucas's and Luke's legacy!!!
@@adamadelsberger3731 I don't think it's hubris to try. It's hubris to not realise the mammoth task involved, to not approach it with humility and to then dis the original work & characters in the effort.
Disney's biggest mistake was not using the EU books to give fans the story they had waited for....when fans went to see TFA all they got was a new hope clone. From thst point onwards fans were always going to not watch star wars in the cinema.
Just put the entire Star Wars IP away in that deep cavernous vault Disney has. Close off Lucasfilms getting rid of the entire staff. Scrub the company from top to bottom. When society is back to normal and talent has come back, try again.
The only way to salvage Star Wars is to completely remove the Disney crap from canon. Treat that garbage like Highlander 2 and pretend it never happened.
I like the idea that my existence as a man is appalling because some random dude pissed off some girl somewhere and now im labeled as a lecture target through artistic means.
I don't understand the thinking at The Iger Company. The Disney princesses were a girl focused brand. Marvel, Indiana Jones and Star Wars WERE boy focused brands. Iger COULD have tried to invent a new girl/female focused brand instead of Bud Lighting EVERY boy brand they had and messing up MOST of the Disney brand in the process.
This will help, once I was told this everything these people do made sense. You are not the customer. You (and more importantly, your children) are the product. Very rich, very powerful people are the customer.
MaRey Sue Palpatine died on the way back to its home planet. New president of Lucasfilm Jon Favreau went on camera to sign a legally-binding document that MaRey Sue Palpatine will never, EVER return! That document conformed to all applicable laws and statues.
That movie " the force awakens" only made profit because WE ALL HAVE BEEN SWITCH BAITED INTO WATCHING IT. We all hated that... But Disney thought that it was a "success"
We were hopeful. It was inferior to the OT and devoid of ideas, but it was acceptable like most things. It had enough of a hook that The Last Jedi did not fail the wat it deserved.
I'd argue that the 32 years of anticipation for an Episode VII was the catalyst for TFA making 2 billion dollars rather than anything else. Definitely not on its own merit. If Episode VII had been good, it would have made 3 billion, and the sequels would have been good, too. Disney should have made their money back on the whole deal by the end of the ST.
@WokeFailsWokeFailsWokeFails Exactly. And that's the thing, a good or authentic post-RotJ Star Wars universe does not involve a Luke Skywalker that is a complete failure. There would be some failures, sure (that's part of a good story), but not complete failure on a level which destroys an entire IP.
"Delayed for years" means "cancelled." They can't expect directors, actors, writers, and other staff to just sit around and do nothing while the movie isn't being made, and the less momentum it has, the less likely it will ever get fully funded, get a script, lock in shooting dates, etc.
Here's the scheme. Steven writes a good movie. KK declines and Steven bows out, but she uses the bones of the story and twists and distorts it with her feminist garbage. Voila.
Another case of Ready Fire Aim from Kathy. She announced this suprise project in a repeat bid to save herself on now they're scrambling to make it happen.
Doesn't matter if the super talented Steven Knight was going to write/direct/produce this Rey movie, you wouldn't see a smidge of his talent come thru onscreen simply because of Granny Kathy calling the shots. If the even more talented James Mangold couldn't make a half decent Indy Jones film because he had to fall under the directives of Granny, that's what most of the talent would fall foul of.
She is treating every single man in the world based on the experiences from the pos men she had in her life. That is pretty damn ignorant. Also, maybe she needs to have a good long look in the mirror herself 🤦♂
um... NO! It was NEVER happening. None of the movies announced by Kathleen Kennedy on May 4th were greenlit by Bob Iger and Disney. It was her last-ditch effort to avoid being ousted. This is VERY, VERY, VERY, OLD NEWS.
The Mandalorian and Grogu film is going to test the waters. I don’t think Disney want take any risks until that film comes out. If that flops then they will have to do something drastic.
There's money in the enigmatic. Cancel a bad movie? Give us money for a new one. Revive a dead movie? Give us money to make it. It's confusing, but that's the ticket to make money: distort the vision of investors.
It does not matter who you get to write these shows and films. As long as Disney and KK has control these people will have their hands tied and will not be able to make them the way they want. Most of us knew a decade ago that when Star Wars was sold to Disney it was RIP! Selling to Disney is where IPs go to die.
I wouldn't watch it now simply based on her response. I am not uncomfortable with women being in charge, and I could care less about their sexuality or gender identity. However, I will not be talked down to by anyone, nor will I pander to some ideology being forced down my throat simply for some director or writer to make a point.
Here's a thought: in my opinion, Disney has finally realized that Kennedy can't even sell water to a thirsty man in a desert. So Iger will block any project she comes up with until her contract is up and then she will be thanked for her services and will be summarily dismissed from Lucasfilm.
The only people who work for Lucasfilm now have little to no alternatives. Anyone with better options like Steven Knight will go and do something else.
That’s probably really bad news for the Mando & Grogu movie, because it means that all the executives at Lucasfilm have only that project to focus on and bring in their „unique talent“.
It's not exactly paradigm shifting or earth shattering it is a low budget kids movie that cost 120 million. They can make money, but that is not the way to make Star Wars a movie franchise again. A tv movie in theaters. You can only sell so many Grogu toys and dolls, if any.
@@matthewgaudet4064 It’s pretty much the only movie project they have that’s moving ahead. And while I agree that 120 million is no budget at all at Disney, other companies could do a cinematic movie with it. But yes, it’s a rather small project, though it seems only these are left at Lucasfilm anyway. Personally I expect it to fail in terms of reinvigorating Star Wars, but then again stranger things have happened. It may just be my negative preconceptions on Star Wars. And honestly, I‘m not sure what announcement could even convince me that this is the thing that will save Star Wars at this point. My personal guess is that it’s impossible to save Star Wars with one big project and that truly rebuilding it will instead take time and a lot of good stuff, while avoiding any further bombs.
@@davidgantenbein9362 , I would not be worried about Favreau I think he can bring it on budget shoot on the 4K Alexa and on the volume if they don't overspend on marketing its a slam dunk. The Filoni movie on the other hand, would worry me he is not a director, it's like allowing Andrew Stanton to make John Crater of Mars. The Rey movie with an unproven director is also an unknown quality, and the Mangold movie he is a solid director who destroyed his career with Indiana Jones.
@@matthewgaudet4064 All the other movies seem still stuck in development or rumored to be dead. Favreau‘s movie is the only one that seems to really go forward with production right now. In terms of budget, I would guess that from all people supposedly working on a SW movie, he is probably best at staying within a budget, so I‘m not that worried about the budget per se, though 120 million in Disney speech means „here you have something, now bother someone else“. What I‘m worried, if that’s the right word even, is that constant interference by Lucasfilm executives will destroy what little chance Favreau‘s movie had after Mando season 3 and whatever Book of Boba Fett was. But worried may be the wrong word as I‘m not interested in the movie, just in the career of Favreau.
Blow up the current star wars plans. Spend a couple years to reevaluate what you are doing. If you want it to come back, pick a new era, drop the in your face agendas, and go back to its inspiration of self-contained action adventure serials like the old flash Gordon serials. Get rid of the rebel empire trope, bring the scale down, and build through characters
She literally made the panel uncomfortable. Little wonder Star Wars has destroyed its fan base. Who wants to hear this crap in a movie? Extremists have taken over indeed
Rey is done as a character. Nobody is going to want anything tied to kathleen after the disgrace that's been going on for 12yrs. It's in essence canceled and won't be revived. The actress needs to move on. Once they make a movie or TV show that sticks to cannon and leaves the woke/dei crap in the dumpster where it belongs, They'll be able to sell starwars again.
I recall back on April or so, as the strikes ended, your boy WDW Pro talking about this movie being Kennedy’s priority and her booking studio space at Pinewood for it to begin shooting in the summer, before other studios could come in and claim the space first. Now he’s saying he never said anything about this film being produced that early. I wonder if he deleted that video first. Still can’t hear you trying to talk over your intro music.
The only reason TFA made any money is because it was the first one to come out. Everybody wanted to see it. Shit dude, our company took off work to go watch it together on a Friday, that's how big it was to the fans when it came out. We were so disappointed after watching it.
Activists don't make good movies. They can only hate and destroy, like tearing down statues. Without good talent like Steven Knight to create the spine for this movie, this project is screwed.
Stephen’s studio is in Birmingham UK not USA. Digbeth Loc (on a canal) is a former industrial area that Stephen is regenerating for his studio with his own money and investment from local government.
To me tell me if im wrong. She pitches big ideas, and big names. All commanding an inflated budget. She pisses off the big names so they leave keeps the big budget and makes whoever and whatever she wants without blowback or questioning.
Par for the course for Lucas films, announcing projects and then canceling or delaying them. How many writers and directors have they gone through over the last few years ? I lost count myself.
Ideology? Yep. Similarly, one of the 2 candidates for US president this month has raised far more money than the other candidate (a former US president) has. Ideology, baby. Pure & simple. Just like what has fueled for over 80 years the People's Republic of China. Which has 2 theme parks co-owned by the same corporation that owns Lucasfilm.
I think that’s their problem right there. She started out saying she wanted to make a movie for women but only once men to watch it and to feel uncomfortable. Do they really know who they’re trying to make this movie for?
You’re right she’s gonna hang on for dear life because all she’s done is Pakistani films and docs. The other thing is Ms. Marvel which wasn’t bad but it’s a decent kids tv show. That’s all she’s done. So of course she’s gonna hang on for dear life on this film. What may happen is she will have to be uncomfortable if she wants more of a career in Hollywood when Kennedy contract isn’t extended and new leadership is in control at lucasfilm. Just be patient.
Doesn't need more work. The Star Wars needs a reboot. Ditch the current story arc and restart it the way it was meant to. CGI it if you have to because some people are too old or have died or just start something new, but stop the woke I don't care. But for goodness sake, I would never watch this trash. Anything with Rey, I will no longer watch. Continue the assault on men? I will never go near it. I no longer call myself a Star Wars fan, and I couldn't care less if the whole franchise burns and dies. Good riddance in my opinion - what it is now? Might as well be dead to me.
Carano’s lawsuit won’t break Disney SW, but will be the catalyst for the break down of this IP under the current leadership. Anything they announce, I ignore because it’s probably not going to happen
I could be wrong, but this cut with the new Star Wars Director about making men uncomfortable. She was generally talking about men mistreating women in India and a documentary she made, but I could be wrong about that.
To be fair, the comments about making men uncomfortable were about her movies about women's situation in countries like Afghanistan and Saudi-Arabia, and about modern slavery. Men who oppress women there should feel uncomfortable. I think we can agree with that.
I am not sure a live action movie can be just put on hold for years. Never mind something that is supposed to energize the franchise. By what ever time it comes out the cast will be too old to make any kind of sense unless they just drop a massive time skip into the story line. Rey going from the untrained new "Jedi" to the old master teaching kids some how with nothing in between.
they can when it hasn't started filming. At that point the checks have been cut and interest is starting to accrue. But right now, in the pre-production phase.... yeah that can take forever i.e. development hell.
@@winterwolfsden I mean yes they can in a literal sense, but not in "will it be successful" kind of way. I am fairly sure there are few movies with a development time longer than 3-5 years that were any kind of success. The most recent example was the Borderlands movie, which I believe hung in limbo for about 10 years since it was first started. So many things go wrong with movies held up. Actors get older, audience interest in the story/franchise wanes and so on. Not that I think there is a ton of interest in a Rey movie, but what interest there is will only be worse in 5 or more years.
I want Disney to double down on putting out the New Rey Palpatine movie. I'm hoping that this move is so bad that it sees a tanking of the share price and leaves room enough for Nelson Peltz, Elon Musk and friends for a hostile takeover...... That's when the fun begins......

Let it rest. It took 16 years for Lucas to release episode 1. Thats the only non money loosing option Disney has right now.
Delaying the MaRey movie is actually terrible news. Make it. Make it uber-expensive. And release it soon. Accelerate the apathy process please.
Ridley killed Star Wars for the vast majority, why is she trying to come back? to kick the dead corpse of her victim?
The only thing that would make this movie worse is if they gave Ray an apprentice played by Rachel Zagler
. . . and Daisy will never work again
Carano’s lawsuit won’t break Disney SW, but will be the catalyst for the break down of this IP under the current leadership.
Anything they announce, I ignore because it’s probably not going to happen
I for one can not wait till they make a Rey Palpatine movie the amount of money lost should be glorious.
I hope Daisey Ridley got some of her pay in advance! Because this movie/trilogy won't see the light of day!!!!
I could be wrong, but this cut with the new Star Wars Director about making men uncomfortable. She was generally talking about men mistreating women in India and a documentary she made, but I could be wrong about that.
To be fair, the comments about making men uncomfortable were about her movies about women's situation in countries like Afghanistan and Saudi-Arabia, and about modern slavery. Men who oppress women there should feel uncomfortable. I think we can agree with that.
The only men that this Rey movie made uncomfortable are Disney's shareholders. If you do not like this you don't have to watch it.
I am not sure a live action movie can be just put on hold for years. Never mind something that is supposed to energize the franchise. By what ever time it comes out the cast will be too old to make any kind of sense unless they just drop a massive time skip into the story line. Rey going from the untrained new "Jedi" to the old master teaching kids some how with nothing in between.
they can when it hasn't started filming. At that point the checks have been cut and interest is starting to accrue. But right now, in the pre-production phase.... yeah that can take forever i.e. development hell.
@@winterwolfsden I mean yes they can in a literal sense, but not in "will it be successful" kind of way. I am fairly sure there are few movies with a development time longer than 3-5 years that were any kind of success. The most recent example was the Borderlands movie, which I believe hung in limbo for about 10 years since it was first started.
So many things go wrong with movies held up. Actors get older, audience interest in the story/franchise wanes and so on. Not that I think there is a ton of interest in a Rey movie, but what interest there is will only be worse in 5 or more years.
@JustaGuy_Gaming oh I definitely agree with "holding up" in the potential sense. Sorry I wasn't thinking along that line. You're 100% right.
I want Disney to double down on putting out the New Rey Palpatine movie. I'm hoping that this move is so bad that it sees a tanking of the share price and leaves room enough for Nelson Peltz, Elon Musk and friends for a hostile takeover...... That's when the fun begins......
